Special Safety Instructions for this Device
If the high-pressure cleaner is handled incorrectly, this may prove hazardous
for individuals and materials. Children and young people are often not able to
evaluate risks. They should therefore not be allowed to operate the device.
Never leave the device unattended as long as the main switch is turned on.
During work breaks the manual spray gun should be secured by use of the lock.
Here there is a Danger of Death!
Never operate the device in rooms where there is a risk of explosion.
Never touch the mains plug with wet hands.
As additional protection the installation of a residual current device
(RCD) with a rated breaking current of not more than 30 mA is
recommended in the electric circuit of the bathroom. Please consult
a qualifi ed electrical engineer.
Before operating the device always check the mains power cable,
the mains plug and high-pressure hose for damage. Damaged
cables must be replaced immediately by an approved qualifi ed
electrician. Damaged high-pressure hoses are to be replaced
immediately.
The following should be taken into consideration when
cleaning motor vehicles: Tyres and tyre valves may be damaged
by the high-pressure jet and then burst. The fi rst indications of this
are discoloration of the tyre. Only the fan jet should be used. A
distance of at least 50 cm should be maintained during the cleaning
process.
Here there is a Danger of Injury!
The jet of water emerging from the high-pressure nozzle causes the
manual spray gun to recoil.
Please ensure you are standing in a stable location. Hold the manu-
al spray gun and the jet pipe as tightly as possible.
The spray jet or parts of it rebounding from other objects may cause
injuries. Protect yourself and others by appropriate clothing, gogg-
les etc.

Length: min 7,5 m Diameter: min. 1/2”
For the connection values please see the technical data contained in these
instructions.
Instructions for use
Use
The device is intended for private use only.
Clean machines, vehicles, buildings, tools, facades, terraces, garden tools etc.
with the high-pressure water jet. If necessary you can also use detergents.
Please use detergents sparingly, noting the quantities recommended by the
producer.
Please note:
The cleaning of motors/engines and other surfaces that may be covered with
oil is only allowed in conjunction with an appropriate oil separator.
Do not clean any surfaces that may contain hazardous materials, such as
asbestos.
Water
If necessary, clean the supply water with a water fi lter. Any impurities in the
water could damage the pump.
Operating the high-pressure cleaner without water will damage the pump. Ple-
ase ensure before switching on the cleaner that the water supply is available.
Bleeding the Device before Use.
The device must be connected to the electricity and water supply (See „Con-
nection“, points 1-4 in the section „Operation“).
Unscrew the high-pressure hose (7) from the high-pressure connection (2) of
the device.

2. Rinse off the loosened dirt with the high-pressure jet.
Water Loss
It is normal for the pump to lose small quantities of water. If there is a sizeable
leak, please contact our service department.
Protection against Damage
Please do not underestimate the pressure produced by the high-pressure
cleaner. If you would like to clean sensitive surfaces it is better to use the fan
jet (See „Adjustment of the Spray Jet“ in the section „Operation“). In the case of
paints or insulated facades please begin at a considerable distance away. Move
slowly closer - depending on the degree of soiling - to the object to be cleaned.
Check the progress of your work at short intervals in order to prevent damage.
Never point the high-pressure jet at other people, animals, the device itself
or electrical equipment!
